I wondered if Dr. Barrett uses computer assisted surgery methods and minimally invasive techniques in his knee replacements? I know he gets terrific results. Two people at my tennis club used him (ed hatch was one) with great results. I will turn 69 on 3/8/12 and am considering bilateral knee replacement this year.

]]> Comment on The need for national joint registries by Gordon Sweet http://www.valleymed.org/blogs/joint/2012/02/24/the-need-for-national-joint-registries/#comment-5111 Gordon Sweet Fri, 24 Feb 2012 16:57:40 +0000 http://www.valleymed.org/blogs/joint/?p=316#comment-5111 I am sincerely grateful to Dr. Barrett and the great staff at the Joint Center. My wife had hip replacement on 2/21/2012 using the anterior procedure and I was able to take her home 48 hours post-op. She's more comfortable and more mobile that she was following the posterior procedure on the other hip. Again, many thanks.

]]> Comment on Anterior approach versus posterolateral approach total hip replacement. by Johanna Yoder http://www.valleymed.org/blogs/joint/2011/07/15/anterior-approach-versus-posterolateral-approach-total-hip-replacement/#comment-5103 Johanna Yoder Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:00:40 +0000 http://www.valleymed.org/blogs/joint-replacement/?p=273#comment-5103 I just came across your posts and find them so encouraging and informative. I had THR minimally invasive surgery 9-7-10 and I have a new lease on life. I have exercised most of my adult life and have kept my weight in a good zone. My surgery went well and it was followed by three weeks at home PT and six weeks PT at their facility. Immediately after PT I signed up with a personal trainer who had a physical therapy background. I worked with her for five months. She facilitated my amazing transformation to a strong, fit 64 year old. The squats and lunges done under the supervision of a personal trainer have made my legs very strong. Core exercises have been outstanding as part of my total body conditioning routine as well. I am still doing these workouts one year later and I plan to keep it up. There is every reason to be fit before THR and after! I cherish my new mobility and I thank you for your candid message regarding maintaining a healthy weight and staying fit. I just came across your posts and find them so encouraging and informative.
